MOM help.

Hey yall!

So the past few days have been such a rollercoaster with emotions and hunger and EVERYTHING.

To make a long story short, my mother had the gastric BYPASS. She is super dooper successful with it going from 315 to 135! ~~ so yes, she has done an incredible job. My mother is my buddy with this journey. She has been through all the steps with me. BUT---- when she asks me if I need something from the store and its not a clear liquid, she freaks on me and tells me that Im not doing this right and that I am just going to ruin it all and that I will basically fail for what I feel is eating potato soup....

She talks about how she did this and she did that.... blah blah blah and heck yes it worked!!!! BUT--- ugh. The doc told me I can have goldfish crackers for Christmas dinner and I plan on itrolleyes.gif She doesnt understand the different food/liquid and eating phases as us.

So can someone please help me and either cyberly kick me in the head and tell me im crazy and she is right or can someone give me something I can show/tell her to prove Im not hearing and seeing things?????blink.gif

P.S. When can I have tuna? --- because Im craving it at the moment

Thanks yall biggrin.gif

Can you photocopy your surgeon's guidelines and share them with her...so she can cross-reference your choices if she feels the need to?

you could either give her a copy of your guidelines or bring her to your next apt so she can get all of her qiestions answered. as for the tuna you should be able to have that at the puree or mushy step.
